missions with good results take time. you have to earn the results.

What is the spawn-rate of new mission? Will there always be a certain number - immedieatly replacing completed missions, or is there a delay of some sort; are expired missions immediatley replaced or does it take days to get new ones or what?

This would help me decide whether it is worth it for me to embark on a harder mission with a prize i'm not particularly covetous of - if it would mean getting a new, possibly better, mission sooner.

I got one of the harder missions that has a 200 EP requirement for greater success. My event crusaders didn't have the bonus EP they get when you first acquire them, only what they had from disenchanting extra items. For example, the Dark Gryphon would have 203 but Larry only about 11. Is that a bug or how it's supposed to work?

@ Everyone: Glad you're enjoying the new missions! :)


@ Amoon: Limited by the expiration, and internal tracking, saying you can only have x of certain types of missions.


@ Tibberous: Yes, you will eventually see Missions to recruit missing Crusaders. Just keep an eye out for them.

The Recruit missions will only show up if you are missing Crusaders, the rest of the time it will be gear for a random event Crusader.

The events are intended to still be the quicker way of unlocking Crusaders and their gear, but now you can have a chance if you get the mission.


@ someone: I will check with the developer on Monday and get back to you. It should factor in the amount of gold needed to unlock the reset ability (so get Nate to 150 or Phoenix and Merci to 250), but it should not keep changing as you gain gold.


@ Roku: I believe depending on the rarity of the mission they are wounded on, it's a day or two. I'll double-check on Monday.


@ Amoon: Yes, we will be fixing the grammar for singular wins. 1 EP done a lot of times adds up, and helps for when you will want to send Crusaders off on the missions that require at least 200 EP to help with success. I plan to beef up my Mister the Monkey for that day, when I need to send away a Gold.

The EP missions award anywhere from 1 EP to 4 EP per Crusader, depending on which one you get.

@ zaqqaz: No, there are no missions that will improve gear to a Golden Epic.

Yes, there are missions that will upgrade Rare to Epic, but you will need to have a piece of Rare gear in all 3 slots before you start winning Epics.

No, Time Warps will not be applying to Mission timers.


@ Erich: You're welcome! ^.^

1) I just tried it and no, it doesn't appear that it awards the achievement for recruiting them. I will check with the developers when we're back in the office on Monday.

2) There currently isn't a cancel option planned, but there has been some feedback from players wishing to cancel, and we will be discussing this internally.


@ Andreas: See above.

@ Azaryah: The spawn rate varies depending on the missions you already have and what you have completed recently. You should see at least a few become available in a day though, but rare and epic missions are rarer than the common ones.


@ Josh: Yes, it is intentional that the missions only take into account the EP owned by the Crusader and not boosted from their swaps.

might as well get rid of saved formations cause that's totally broken by these missions

Robo Bunny doesn't count as a Clicker? Help me make sense of that:

@ Erika It's not the ones from the swaps I'm talking about, but the EP they start with once you unlock them for the first time.

Just a question: I just got a mission where I can get Mister the Monkey, but I'm not strong enough to guarantee its success (i get slightly above 50% chance).

But, will the REGUALR Carnival event come back where we can earn them the regular way? Or is this the only way to earn old event Crusaders? I'm just missing Monkey and Pete, and I really want to get a hold of them with certainty :/

I think its a mistake not earning idols from crusaders missing on missions, I know it makes sense but it only limits you from doing the most important thing in the game reseting and doing free runs or new objectives!

e.g. right now I made a mistake of putting my crusaders on long missions and the idols I will get if I reset are half of what I should get and as a result I won't reset waiting for the crusaders coming back. This means I am actually not able to play the game and just wait, which is a bad thing imo.

then Seofirosu when you want to reset replace people on your bench that are locked because of being in a mission with other people that share the same bench spot and level those up for idol count.
i.e. if hermit is in a mission then swap him out with kyle. everyone has at least one benchmate except for Nate. Ig you happen to have everyone in the same bench spot on missions then that's your fault.
this behavior is exactly how it should be.

p.s. you know, if you are going to use someone on a mission that is long, then level him up before you start that mission, those levels, even for people away on missions count into idols calculations.

I dont have many replacements since I am a new player. I am stuck for today not doing anything until I get my crusaders back :(. This choice is making you NOT play the game thus making it a poor game design imho as always.

@Azamagon IIRC they previously said that all events will come back a year after their first run. So you would get a chance at them eventually; missions are for getting them earlier.

you do not have to do any missions at all, so play the game one way or play the game multiple ways. nobody is forcing you to do missions.
p.s. level everyone else up and still get idols. only if you use half of all your crusaders will you only get about half the possible idols from a reset (exactly the same thing that happens in many objectives like girls night out... where half the people are locked out)

I am not asking to be able to use the crusaders while on missions just leveling them for the idols.

Well optimizing new content is possible, there is no unwritten law that forbids it. So you like it as it is which is fine, but the game changes all the time.

crusaders in missions are exactly the same as crusaders unavailable for objectives.

have you played this game? more specifically guy's night out, or beauties and beasts, or holiday hoopla, or no muggles allowed objectives? you will understand the way the Devs think when you do.

this is not going to change, it's part and parcel of how things are supposed to work.

Now that I look a little harder, none of my crusaders at all count as "Clickers". That has to be a bug, right? Bushwhacker and Robo Bunny are both Clickers, aren't they?

Posted this already on Kong forum. There was one more with the same problem.
Screenshot is on said forum.

I wanted to send my crusaders on a mission to unlock Pam.
As soon as I clicked complete my crusaders dissapeared and the mission went on. Luckily I can use my crusaders again but the mission
will be gone :(
